A night to be “proud” of as Club Treasurer John Dinneen put it following Needham Soccer Clubs annual Coaches Appreciation Dinner held at the Needham Golf Club last Wednesday night.

Last week the club honor long time NSC Coach and member of the Board of Directors, Bill Fidurko, with the Don Brock Award. Don was the early pioneer who brought the beautiful game to Needham and helped build what we all get to be part of today through the Needham Soccer Club.

Bill Fidurko who not only played through the Needham Soccer Club system but also played for Don at NHS, has carried on the same commitment to the youth of Needham as Don did, truly enhancing the experience for the youth of Needham through the sport of Soccer. After over 15+ years of coaching his oldest Liam – and still coaching his other two sons Matt and Kevin – Bill continues to be a permanent fixture out on the soccer fields.

Bill also spent over 10 years on the Needham Soccer Club Board and served as our Club President during some times of growth and challenges. Bill was a rock that carried us through some volatile times. He continued to commit to the expansion of offerings and allowed the club to adapt to todays environment. Since joining the Board, Bill has been part of some amazing changes – including the implementation of our 1st/2nd grade NSCJA program. The DON BROCK award is presented by the Needham Soccer Club each year for Outstanding Contribution to the Needham Soccer Club and Youth of Needham.

Congratulations Bill and Thank You for Everything!!

The Club would also like to thank our guests Nancy Feldman and Brandon Bye for taking the time to be with us last night and speak to those in attendance about the game at the different levels in which they work. Both were amazing and gave inspirational speeches that left those in attendance felling positive and excited about the upcoming season!

BIG THANK YOU to Tom Roach & Lee Popper for helping to organize and host this great night for our club! Also thanks to everyone who was able to make it out last week and for every coach that gives their time to the club. We would not be what we are without all of you!
